Longtime band geek and one-time aspiring opera singer. Bottled Ginger and freckled up the wazoo. Former fat kid. The story so far: spent a good portion of my life kicking around Washington and Idaho, quit job, give up apartment, marry that weird kid from middle school, and run off to Europe for two months. Interview for a job via Skype in Normandy, haul ass back to the States, throw random crap in the car (including grandmother's fine china but no sheets for the bed), book it up the Alcan Highway in time to take up residence as the brand new teacher of music in a tiny little town I had never been to before. 5 years on, we quit our jobs again and moved to China, which was home for two years. Got sick of that pretty quick (the pandemic didn't help.) so we hightailed out of Asia for new adventures. That brought us to Kyiv Ukraine, and I love it! Hobbies include hanging out with my cats and badass little dog, traveling with that guy I married and licking glaciers. Reasonably mediocre at writing, drawing and assorted musical instruments, and lately, taking my camera out for walks. And that brings us up to speed.
